The career of an evil alchemist started when he picked up the Mad Sword Girl

[Task Reward: Junior Arcane Alchemist Ability]

Then, these three lines of words lit up together, and then slowly disappeared, replaced by a new line of words.

[Mission rewards are being distributed...]

It was also at this moment that Lu Lin suddenly felt something growing out of his consciousness.

It was like little bubbles popping out of consciousness one after another, gurgling for a while, and then bursting one after another.

Every time a bubble burst, Lu Lin felt as if there was some new knowledge in his mind.

As more and more bubbles burst, Lu Lin seemed to see the starry sky unfolding in front of him.

Then countless stars began to gather towards him, and countless knowledge and experiences were gradually integrated into his body.

I don't know how long it took before Lu Lin regained consciousness.

He lowered his head and looked at the alchemy cauldron in front of him. At this moment, a series of knowledge about the methods of using this cauldron and the precautions to pay attention to, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of this obsidian alchemy cauldron, etc., almost naturally appeared in his mind. emerge.

"Is this the ability of a junior arcane alchemist?" Lu Lin looked at his hands.

From now on, he becomes a junior alchemist?

From today on, he will never have to live the same hard life as before?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and then he even wanted to open his mouth and laugh.

But before he opened his mouth and made a sound, his eyes caught sight of the girl under the table in the corner.

The latter's empty eyes were also looking at him at the moment.

Almost instantly, Lu Lin's smile froze, he swallowed, scratched his hair, and then shrank to the side dejectedly.

As he gained the power of a junior arcane alchemist, the small menu in his consciousness also took on new changes.

[The Path of the Sage: The First Alchemy Phase [-]]

[Task Objective: Collect Materials]

[Obtain three velvet grass plants (0/3)]

[Obtain three flower-faced mushrooms (0/3)]

[Obtain a Gou Gou leaf (0/1)]

[Task reward: Newcomer material handling equipment package]

Looking at the task list, Lu Lin's vision became blurry for a moment, and he shed tears of emotion in the corner of his eyes.

coming!

finally come!

Normal mission!

Just say it!

Previously, it would have been an outrageous task for an ordinary person from a different world who had just arrived and knew nothing to directly build such an advanced alchemy cauldron!

Look at this task. This thing is so normal. These three materials are not rare materials. Based on Lu Lin's experience in collecting herbs nearby these days, he can complete this task in less than two hours.

Moreover, even if he doesn't know how to collect herbs, these materials are not expensive and it doesn't cost much to buy them.

So, this is the task that novices should do.

Lu Lin glanced at the girl in the corner.

At this time, the other party had already looked away and was leaning against the wall again.

"Hmm... It looks like there should be no problem. It happens to be not dark yet, so it should be time to go out to collect herbs now," Lu Lin thought, picked up the bamboo basket he carried when collecting herbs, and left the house.

Although if you want to be quick, it is most convenient to go directly to the town to buy it. After all, it is estimated that you can buy it for only a few dozen copper coins.

But Lu Lin still chose to pick it himself.

Without him.

Fear of poverty.

Chapter 4 Why does this development direction feel wrong?

Velvet grass is very common and the cheapest medicinal herb. It can be found on the grass near Lu Lin's house.

The flower-faced mushroom is a bit more troublesome and needs to be found in the nearby woods, but Lu Lin probably knows where it is easier to find it.

As for the Gou Gou leaf, this thing is difficult to find. After all, the Gou Gou tree is a very rare tree, and you may not be able to find one in a large forest.

But if you already know where there is a Gou Gou tree, it's completely different. Just go to the place and pick a leaf. It couldn't be simpler.

It's just that Lu Lin has been a herb gatherer for so long, and this is the first time he has to collect Gou Gou leaves. Generally, he goes to the Gou Gou tree to pick Gou Gou fruit, which is a relatively valuable medicinal material. , it will bear fruit every few dozen days.

Can hook leaves...

Lu Lin had never heard of the use of this thing.

But anyway, his task was to pick it by himself, so Lu Lin didn't bother to look into it carefully. He found the nearest Gou Gou tree, looked at it, but found no results, picked some leaves, and then left.

Although the task only required one piece, it came anyway, so Lu Lin picked a few more just to be on the safe side.

After picking the gou gou leaves, he went to the depths of the forest to find some flower-faced mushrooms. Of course, to be on the safe side, he also picked a few more.

Finally, he returned to the nearby meadow to pick velvet grass.

I got the three velvet grasses and the mission was completed. However, the rewards were not directly distributed immediately, but there was an additional option to receive the rewards.

It makes sense when you think about it. This is a physical reward after all. If it suddenly hit Lu Lin on the head in the wild, he would have to carry it home.

After returning home with the collected materials, Lu Lin carefully opened the door and immediately looked in the direction of the girl.

The other party was still staying in the same place, with his head still leaning against the wall, but his empty eyes were closed at this moment, and he actually huddled under the table and fell asleep.

Seeing this, Lu Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good to sleep. No matter what, you can't go crazy while sleeping.

We can't meet Boss Cao who kills people in a dream.

I just might have to be careful not to wake her up.

Carefully coming to the bedside, Lu Lin put down the bamboo basket and received his mission reward.

A mark very similar to the pattern on the delivery scroll appeared in Lu Lin's palm, and not long after, a small wooden box half a meter square appeared in Lu Lin's hand.

When I opened the wooden box, I saw that there were nearly ten different kinds of tools inside, ranging from basic ones for grinding and pounding medicine to more complicated ones for distilling and purifying, etc. There were all kinds of alchemy tools.

And Lu Lin suddenly discovered that as long as he took a look, the usage of related tools would naturally emerge in his mind, just like he had learned how to use these things long ago.

It seems that these should be due to the "Elementary Arcana Alchemist Ability" obtained before.

"Although it doesn't look like high-end goods, it's enough, and for such a complete set, it would probably cost dozens of silver coins." Thinking of this, Lu Lin couldn't help but smile.

After more than a hundred days of hard work, he now knows very well how much work it takes to earn these dozens of silver coins.

Just when Lu Lin was excited, the mission menu in his consciousness was also updated.

The previous tasks disappear and are replaced by new ones.

[The Path of the Sage: The First Alchemy Phase [-]]

[Task Objective: Process Materials]

[Obtain 10ml of velvet pulp (0/1)]

[Obtain 50g dry mushroom powder (0/1)]

[Obtain 100 ml of Gogo leaf blending solvent (0/1)]

[Task reward: a black vine alchemy staff]

For a simple material processing task, the materials needed were exactly the ones he had just picked up, and the required equipment was also included in the package just now.

It seems that this task is just like its name, leading Lu Lin to complete his first alchemy.

The task is simple, and the rewards at each stage are quite good. Although Lu Lin has never heard of the black vine alchemy staff, based on Lu Lin's understanding of the alchemy staff, even the apprentice level usually costs about thirty silver coins.

"Huh, this mission is normal," Lu Lin let out a sigh of relief.

Finally he got through it.

The feeling of being rewarded with joy after suffering is so wonderful.

Then, he glanced at the sleeping girl, and then at his house.

Ok……

It feels like there is a lack of a work table for the alchemy equipment. Originally, a dining table would be fine, but now the dining table has been occupied by a girl. I guess Lu Lin will have to go to the town tomorrow to buy a table.

Well, I still have a lot of money on hand now, so I can buy a suitable table, which shouldn’t cost too much.

As for today, just sit on the floor and make do.

Taking out the required equipment, Lu Lin began to process the raw materials.

After all, it was his first time, so Lu Lin actually thought that the process would probably not go smoothly.

But when he actually started to do it, he found that his worries were completely unnecessary. He performed a series of operations as if he had practiced them hundreds of times, with no mistakes at all.

However, probably because he was only at the level of a junior arcane alchemist, although the quality of the things he finally produced was up to standard, they were only up to standard.

If he wants to make something of better quality, he should need to master more and more relevant knowledge and deal with more details in the process.

If he wants to master these, he should have to wait until he obtains higher-level abilities.

Within an hour, Lu Lin made all three materials needed to complete the task.

After receiving the reward in his consciousness, the same mark as before appeared in his hand again, and then, a dark alchemy staff appeared in his hand.

The staff seemed to be made of some kind of pure black twigs. The total length was about 1.5 meters and a half. It was tough in texture and light in hand. It was thick at the front and thin at the back. The branches at the front were bifurcated and formed into a The sphere looks somewhat related to the egg beater.

"It's a material I've never seen before, but it's quite handy." Lu Lin played with the alchemy staff back and forth, filled with joy.

After coming to another world for so long, he finally has his own things to do.

However, the alchemy staff seems to be used more to stir up the alchemy cauldron during alchemy rather than as a weapon.

Perhaps because of this, the front end of this thing looks like an eggbeater.

As the rewards were obtained, the task list also changed again.

[The Path of the Sage: The First Alchemy Phase Three]

[Task goal: Refining a bottle of primary plant extract poison (0/1)]

[Recipe: 10 ml of velvet grass pulp, 50 ml of dry flower face mushroom powder, 100 ml of Gogo leaf blending solvent]

[Task Reward: Complete Book of Elementary Arcana Alchemy Formulas]

Just as Lu Lin expected, after preparing the materials, the next step must be alchemy.

only……

He somewhat did not expect that the potion for his first alchemy task would be a bottle of poison.

Vaguely, he had a bad premonition.

Chapter 5 Have you realized...?

Once upon a time, Lu Lin had always been curious about something.

Obviously, when alchemists refine medicine, they only produce small bottles of medicine, but why is the alchemy cauldron always huge?

But since he gained the ability of a junior arcane alchemist, it's not surprising for him.

The alchemical cauldron is not simply a container used to stir materials, but a special instrument that provides an alchemical reaction environment.

It is large enough to adapt to various refining needs.

Standing in front of the alchemy cauldron, Lu Lin held the alchemy staff in one hand and the gou gou leaf to blend the solvent with the other. After taking a slow and deep breath, he gently poured the gou gou leaf and the solvent into the alchemy cauldron.

On one side, he recited a spell.
